SMA Golf competition 2019

A section of the spectators who witnessed the tense finale of the SMA 2019 Golf Classic

The 2019 annual SMA Golf competition brought together 22 SMA enthusiastic golfers. Thanks to the generosity of the Douglas Golf Club, Cork, this two-day competition helps renew acquaintances within the Irish SMA Province – those based in Ireland, and those home on holidays from Kenya and Zambia.

After the intensity of the Provincial Assembly, it was a welcome opportunity to relax and renew friendships.
